LOTUS-Simulator
For the first time, bus, tram and train are simulated extremely realistic in a single game – and you can drive them, build them or create the world around. LOTUS – simulation will never be the same!

Vroegtijdige toegang

Krijg direct toegang om te spelen en raak bij dit spel betrokken tijdens het ontwikkelingsproces.

Opmerking: Dit spel in vroegtijdige toegang is nog niet voltooid en kan mogelijk wel of niet veranderen. Als je niet staat te springen om dit spel in de huidige staat te spelen, kun je beter afwachten hoe het spel zich verder ontwikkelt. Meer informatie

Wat de ontwikkelaars zeggen:

Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'The technical basis for LOTUS is created. You can build and furnish maps, you can import and configure vehicles – and of course you can drive!
The necessary complex tools are basically finished and the simulation has the substantial base features to provide a driving experience with highest claims for realistic physics, sound and system depth. With your feedback we not only want to optimize the tools with regard to your individual demands, but also improve and extend the gameplay to reach our shared purpose: A simulator not only for driving bus and railway, but also to set your creativity free, develop your skills, perhaps take a stroll down memory lane, connect with sympathizers and which most importantly provides a lot of fun for a very long time.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'We plan to stay in Early Access until approximately 2022 – just as long as it takes to implement all planned features. This value has been increased multiple times during the past years, since we decided for a comprehensive all-inclusive solution at some features that took a lot more time then expected, but resulted in features that left nothing to be desired. It has always been worth the time!'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'This price of the Early Access version of LOTUS is the same as the price of the release version. We primarily address players and addon developers who appreciate an intense communication with the developers, want to implement their own projects in an early stage of development, want to influence the development of LOTUS or just want to be players from the very start.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'During EA we offer an intense, fast and direct one-to-one support and the opportunity to direct individual requests to the developers, discuss them with them and to possibly integrate them in our application. In addition, every single bug report is of great value and will be processed appreciatively.
Everybody will be able to take part in surveys regarding the next features to be implemented in LOTUS.
Our simulator is so diverse and extensive that we are depending on feedback from different systems, from addon developers with different and international standards and different ambitions as well as from players with different levels of knowledge – to reach our high claims when the release has come, which is why we need you!'

Over dit spel

LOTUS-Simulator is a driving simulator in a class of its own! At the beginning, the player chooses freely a vehicle and drives it around town, enjoys the ultra-realistic feeling of driving and the original sounds and may even forget that the vehicle is virtual. Once gripped by the excitement of simulation driving, the standards increase: stick to tight schedules, carry special passengers, master the difficult traffic. But that’s not all. The ambition grows with the experience: Now the multiplayer is played under real conditions – the colleagues in the control centre coordinate by radio, the game leader set challenges in the middle of the road, unpredictable weather, real duty rosters and long shifts. And after all, how about recreating the way of the school bus and to master the student’s traffic this time on your own? Didn’t the mate from the historic vehicle society have an ancient tram car with crank control standing around? You could breathe life again into it in the simulator – as a museum run or maybe even at the time it originates…

With LOTUS, dreams and ideas come true – and the best of it: every good realization will find followers and supporters that are hoping for extensions or are looking for exhausting the adventure of simulation driving. They are waiting for you!

LOTUS, that means: L like Leitstelle, (German, control centre), O like omnibus, T like tram, U like underground, S like suburban train.

Features

  • Modular structure: Buy and play only what you are interested in – vehicles of the railway, like trams or trains, or vehicles of the road, like buses and trolleybuses, or even other modules that will be released later.
  • Realism: Driving physics, environmental physics, graphical effects, sounds, weather, seasons and the world coordinate system are uncompromisingly realistic – that is our first priority.
  • Multiplayer: Driving different tours with friends, greeting each other at the meeting point, ensure the connection by radio, coordinate everything in the control centre on your own or follow the instructions of your colleague – this and much more is provided by the multiplayer of LOTUS.
  • Map editor: With many tools, aids and quite a few ingenious gimmicks mountains are moved, embankments planned, tracks laid and streets tarmacked. Afterwards the landscape is shaped and decorated with buildings, trees, lights, stops, benches, fences and much more.
  • Content tool: Whether a single scenery object or a whole vehicle – with the content tool the objects are configured. From material settings to complex animation, from the design of the physics, the sound settings and the import and debugging of scripts, the content tool accompanies and supports the developer.
  • Plugin interface: A discarded crank, the board information system with display, a driver’s desk or a whole cockpit can be operated with the simulator and get information back from it by the use of the plugin interface.
*Some features, like weather, will be enabled during Early Access and are not available from start!
